Norway is a large energy producer, and one of the world's largest exporters of oil. Most of the electricity in the country is produced by hydroelectricity.
Norway is a key energy partner for the EU and a major supplier of oil, gas and electricity. In the first 5 months of 2023, Norway was our largest gas supplier, providing 50% of the EU’s pipeline natural gas. In June 2022, the EU and Norway highlighted their strong relationship as neighbours, partners and allies in a joint statement.
Delivering the energy transition requires groundbreaking electrical engineering feats. The newly opened 1,400-MW NordLink interconnector uniting Norway and Germany for the first time is one such achievement that celebrates a decades-old TSO partnership and underlines the need to cooperate across borders to deliver the energy transition.
At the same time, as a major oil and gas producer and exporter, Norway will need to support an evolution of its energy sector amid a global energy transition. Thanks to its ample reserves of oil and natural gas, Norway is a net energy exporter: in 2020, 87% of its energy production was exported.
As an energy-rich country, Norway is in a unique starting position with respect to the energy transition. An abundance of affordable hydropower has enabled the development of energy-intensive industries and a high level of electrification of homes and businesses with limited GHG emissions.
Most of the electricity in the country is produced by hydroelectricity. Norway is one of the leading countries in the electrification of its transport sector, with the largest fleet of electric vehicles per capita in the world (see plug-in electric vehicles in Norway and electric car use by country).

Grid connected PV experience in Brazil is still limited to a handful of small installations operating at universities, research institutes ( Ruether and Zilles, 2011 ), some private institutions (MPX for example), few in residences and commerce, at least in its northeast region.
Considering the country's advantageous solar radiation conditions, grid connected photovoltaics, with an installed capacity of only 4.5 MW p in the year 2013, is still an unrepresented energy form in Brazil ( Holdermann et al., 2014 ).
In this article, the 2.2 kW p grid connected photovoltaic system installed at the State University of Ceará – Brazil was studied from June 2013 to May 2014 and its performance parameters were determined. The total output energy during the measured period was of 3708,2 kWh and the rated energy output was 1685.5 kWh/kW p.
The use of Grid-Connected Photovoltaic Systems (GCPVS) is a viable solution for the country, since it presents favorable natural conditions for the use of solar energy.
Brazil's small northern and larger southern electrical grids were joined in January 1999 into one grid that serves 98% of the country. Brazil's domestic supply is augmented by imports from neighboring Argentina. Renewable energy likely will continue to play an important role in Brazil's electrification plans.
This study approaches the current scenario of three photovoltaic systems installed in Curitiba in 2016 and part of 2017: Green Office (GO) located in Curitiba Campus Downtown, Curitiba Campus Neoville, both of the Federal Technological University of Paraná (UTFPR), as well as a residence.

The microgrid in grid-connected mode should operate in constant P–Q mode. Thus the inverter is operated in constant current control mode using d–q-axis-based current control.

The transition between grid-connected and islanded mode in a VSI-fed system is carried out in a systematic manner as detailed in this paper. During grid-connected mode, the inverters are modelled as sources supplying constant real and reactive power (P– Q) using d–q axis current control.
The control schemes for grid-connected and islanded modes in a VSI-fed system are explained in the subsequent sections. During grid-connected mode, the microgrid should operate in constant P–Q mode, and the inverter is operated in constant voltage, constant reactive power (V-Vr) control. (2.1 Control scheme during grid-connected mode)
In a grid-connected microgrid, the sources are controlled to provide constant real and reactive power injection. In contrast, during islanded mode, the sources are controlled to provide constant voltage and frequency operation. Special control schemes are needed to ensure smooth transition between these modes.
This paper investigates the operation of microgrid during transition from grid-connected to island mode and vice versa with inverter-based DG sources. A systematic approach for designing the grid connected and island mode controllers is described. Contributions of the paper are the following:
Sometimes the islanded mode controls may become more complex than grid-connected mode controls. The control, protection and stability issues, being much different from those of the conventional power system, open up new prospects of research in this field.
The microgrid in grid-connected mode should operate in constant P – Q mode. Thus the inverter is operated in constant current control mode using d – q -axis-based current control. Consider the inverter model as shown in figure 1 b along with the filter.
